The fifth volume is full of awe and martial arts legends Chapter 232: Gold and Silver Arms, Martial Saint of the World
"puff!"
A mouthful of crimson blood mist suddenly spurted out .
His feet didn't move, but his chest collapsed and most of his sternum was shattered.
But Hongfa didn't cry out in pain, nor did he get angry. He just murmured in a daze, "Shen Tianjun!"
It was because he had already seen the figure sitting cross-legged inside the statue of Longevity Buddha.
This person is Shen Tianjun, it can only be Shen Tianjun.
Li Muchan also saw it.
This is a middle-aged man in blue clothes, sitting with his eyes closed and legs crossed. His face is slightly rough and ordinary-looking, with some newly emerged dark stubble on his chin and cheeks. His face is shiny with oil, and his blood is full under his skin, making his face look frighteningly rosy. There is a hint of spirit between his eyebrows, as if he is asleep, very lifelike.
Li Muchan also widened his eyes. He had never seen such a strange thing.
This person is definitely dead.
Because he couldn't feel the man's energy, the other person wasn't breathing, and had no heartbeat.
But Li Muchan and Hongfa almost all looked at the hands of the corpse.
The hands were placed quietly on the knees, the left hand was silver-white and the right hand was golden, as if covered with a layer of metal mesh fabric made of unknown material, covering the entire palm like a glove and extending to the elbow. It was very strange and magical.
The person was clearly dead, but these hands still emitted a captivating and soul-stirring brilliance that made it difficult to look away once one glance.
In the past, those were the unrivaled hands that made all the heroes of the nine provinces and the heroes of the world bow down to them and respected them.
Hongfa roared even more wildly, and it was unclear whether he was surprised, happy, or afraid.
His pupils trembled and his face turned pale, but then he burst into laughter again.
"Hahahaha... I never thought that after searching for so many years, this body would be right under my nose the whole time."
But before the fight was over, Li Muchan's face suddenly turned gloomy, because a hand was lightly pressed on his chest, and there was a strong suction force in the palm.
The suction was so strong that it was like a desert encountering a pool of fresh water. Once it was stimulated, the internal force in his body flowed towards the other party involuntarily and uncontrollably.
Dead tree Zen.
Li Muchan's eyes flickered, and he couldn't even retract his hands. The person in front of him seemed to be emitting a magical suction force from head to toe, and his chest was sucking his hands tightly, and he couldn't break free.
Once his mind was steady, he secretly mobilized the Wuxiang magic to fight against it.
"So the Wuxiang Divine Art can cause the five internal organs to shift. Great! You're brave, resourceful, and bold. You're a man who will accomplish great things." Hongfa's gaze burned as he stood still, pressing firmly against Li Muchan's chest. His voice was hoarse as he spoke, "You possess two truly astonishing and unique skills. You are truly a truly remarkable talent. In the future, no, within three to five years, I'm afraid no one in the martial arts world will be able to rival you. But alas, you don't stand a chance. All your skills will now be mine."
He seemed to have great confidence in himself and even laughed at the end.
"Hahaha, what a joy! Today, not only did I defeat the most prestigious leader of the Tianxia Alliance in the martial arts world, I also found Shen Tianjun's body and the Four Illuminations Divine Art. This makes my life worthwhile."
Li Muchan exerted force with his palm, intending to take the opportunity to break free, but it would have been fine if he hadn't exerted force. Once he exerted force, the internal force suddenly rushed over like a broken dam. He had no choice but to quickly collect his thoughts, calm his breath, and consolidate the internal force in his dantian.
"Old ghost, you are seriously injured now, so you should take care of yourself first." He said with a forced smile.
Hongfa said calmly, "My withered wood Zen essence is absorbed and released, just like a towering ancient tree, whose vitality emanates from its roots buried in the earth to its branches and leaves. As long as the blow isn't fatal, the higher your skill, the faster your wounds will heal, and your recovery will be faster... Your palm should have hit me on the top of my head, and you wouldn't have suffered such a fatal disaster."
Li Muchan's eyes flickered as he chuckled. "It seems you didn't understand what I said. I meant that we're both going to die soon. Judging from the noise we made just now, it won't be long before the people from the Azure Dragon Society hear the news and rush over."
"Hehehe, I think you have really lost your mind. You forgot that I am a member of the Qinglong Society." Hongfa sneered woodenly, with a stiff and old-fashioned smile on his face. It was uglier than crying.
Li Muchan sighed, "You just said you were born with wisdom, but I think you're completely stupid. Do you think those people will save you after seeing this corpse, or will they take the opportunity to kill you? Shen Tianjun's corpse and the Four Illuminations Divine Art—these things are enough to stir up a bloody storm. And will they let you get this thing? With your strength, I'm afraid they'll be wary of you, so how could they let you obtain this peerless divine art?"
The smile on Hongfa's face disappeared and he stopped talking.
How could the formless magic skill that Li Muchan practiced be ordinary? Once the skill is formless, the self-dissolution can not only act on the body, making the body as light as a piece of paper, but also act on the internal force, turning it into colorless, formless, and traceless. As long as one concentrates inward, he will attract others, and it will not be a one-time effort. At least it will take until Li Muchan is exhausted and unable to resist.
But if the stalemate continues like this, by the time those people discover the body, it will not be his turn.
Everyone in the capital was interested in this martial art; even the emperor wanted to learn it.
But he really didn't want to give up.
Li Muchan is a big threat, a huge and earth-shattering threat. Once we give up this opportunity, we will be letting the tiger return to the mountain.
And for some reason, he actually saw some of Shen Tianjun's past in this person. This feeling didn't come from temperament or appearance, but from this person's experience. He was also a late bloomer, starting late, achieving fame late, but once he rose to prominence, he was unstoppable.
It must not be let go.
But looking at Shen Tianjun's body and those hands, Hongfa's eyes kept changing.
He has lived his entire life under the shadow of these hands, and his only wish for the rest of his life is to obtain these hands. For this, he did not hesitate to hide his identity and spent decades in this temple. Now that the things are right in front of him, how can he let others take them away?
Li Muchan's breathing became heavier. Although his expression was calm, the changes in his mind were no less than Hongfa's.
Because the two of them are unable to move now, once the Qinglong Society's troops arrive, both of them will die.
There seemed to be some movement outside.
Several light footsteps were heard in the front yard, and exclamations were heard everywhere.
Li Muchan was also ready for a final fight.
Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, Hongfa stared at Li Muchan with an expressionless face. Then, he suddenly exerted force with one palm, and with a "bang", Li Muchan was knocked away. At the same time, he retracted the broken knife, jumped into the air without hesitation, and pounced on Shen Tianjun's body.
This means retreat and escape.
Li Muchan floated back, landed firmly on his feet, and was about to attack again, but his cold eyes suddenly shrank, as if he had seen some unimaginable scene, and his face was filled with shock.
Not only he was shocked, but also Hongfa.
Hongfa was incredibly fast. He leaped in front of Shen Tianjun's body. Seeing that it was only one step away, he reached out and grabbed it.
But when he grabbed it, the corpse that had been dead for decades actually moved at this moment, its shoulders trembled slightly, and its eyelids moved slightly, as if it was not dead at all and was about to open its eyes.
Hongfa let out a strange cry of "Ah", as if he saw a ghost, but his expression was fierce and he moved even faster, pressing hard on the top of Shen Tianjun's head.
Even if you live, you will die.
He slapped down with his palm, but unexpectedly the power of his palm was lost. An extremely indescribable energy burst out from the body of the corpse, rising like clouds and mist, soaring into the sky and crashing into Hongfa's chest.
"Wow……"
The spread of Dharma suffered a severe blow.
The corpse in front of him was visibly shrinking.
“Puff!”
At this moment, two long knives suddenly stabbed into his back.
Li Muchan stood beside him, expressionless , pushing the handle forward and gently twisting the blade.
However, Hongfa seemed to be completely unaware of the two swords stirring within his body. Instead, his eyes were bloodshot, and he laughed shrilly and hoarsely , "Shen Tianjun, ah Shen Tianjun, you are indeed Shen Tianjun... ahem... well, Shen Tianjun... ah, good hands, good hands..."
His voice grew weaker and weaker, like a sigh.
Really persistent like a devil.
